most practicing anthropologists are unbothered by the Aquatic Ape Theory (AAT) and its advocates, except perhaps when a student brings it up in lecture

Without going in to details (which were nicely summarised by Crew) it will suffice to say that no evidence for telegony was found, but it was shown, among other things, that some horses can produce striped colts without ever having seen a zebra.
In animals the phenomenon is called «telegony» and occures if a male who has been mated to female affects the appearance of the subsequent offspring of that female by other males. The best known example is that of Lord Morton’s quagga, a species of zebra now extinct. Lord Morton had mated a male quagga to an Arab mare, which has subsequently mated to an Arab stallion. The foals from the latter mating showed features resembling the quagga (the «quagga taint»), in particular conspicuous stipes on the legs, which contemporary scientists accepted as a proof of telegony. Darwin explained telegony by supposing that gem-mules introduced in to the female when she mates with the first male can survive and divide in her until subsequent matings. Later control experiments showed that stripes could be found on foals from mothers who had been never mated to quagga or zebra, and belief in telegony was dead by the end othe nineteenth century (Burkhardt 1979)

Вызвавший отрицательные отклики сборник статей «Целомудрие и телегония» (тираж — 10 000 экз.) с благой целью предостережения от добрачных связей ссылается на явление телегонии, отвергнутое наукой ещё более 100 лет назад (телегония — якобы возможное влияние предыдущего полового партнера матери на её потомство от другого отца, кстати, телегония признавалась лысенковцами в 1940-50 гг.).

Iridology is quackery and has absolutely no scientific basis. In this regard, iridology is tantamount to witch doctoring
